Gerhart Hauptmann received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1912

His first drama, Vor Sonnenaufgang inaugurated the naturalistic movement in modern German literature; it was followed by Das Friedensfest, Einsame Menschen and Die Weber, a powerful drama depicting the rising of the Silesian weavers in 1844

Of Hauptmann's subsequent work, mention may be made of the comedies Kollege Crampton, Der Biberpelz and Der rote Hahn, a "dream poem," Hannele, and an historical drama Florian Geyer

He also wrote two tragedies of Silesian peasant life, Fuhrmann Henschel and Rose Bernd, and the dramatic fairy-tales Die versunkene Glocke and Und Pippa tanzt

1911 was the zenith - he wrote Die Ratten, for which he received the Nobel Prize

This Volume contains Drayman Henschel (Fuhrmann Henschel) & Rose Bernd (Rose Bernd) & The Rats (Die Ratten)
